Canadians

[Garrobo]

If you've ever wondered what it is that makes Canadians the way they are I've got it narrowed down to a few items. It's either the water, weather or too much moose meat. Any other ideas?

Being a Canadian myself I can tell you that while all of the above reasons certainly add to the mystery of "being Canadian" it all boils down to one glorious thing! IT'S THE BEER Eh!!!!!!!!

Moose Meat eah! it,s the cold clear fresh water we get to dive in.
And Year around, it does,nt get much above 60 degrees, so after a day of diving in cold water diving, it,s off to Tim Hortons for a hot cup of joe!
WE are Canadian!

Well, we met a fine fellow down here from Canada. My FIRST dive, away from these tropical waters that I learned in, is going to be an ice dive with him as I live close to his home in Toronto. The dude SWEARS I will love it and if I don't? he say's were only doing three minutes down per diver. Oh, I'm sure it will be almost as good looking up at ice, as watching tropical fish

I was on a plane in Australia and the flight attendent making small talked asked where I was from. I said Denver, CO. She then remarked that they had some Canadians on the plane.

When I told her that Colorado is in the US, her reply was..

"Well, its no different than how you Americans mix up your Australians and New Zealanders."

Makes me wonder if most of the world just looks at Canada as an extension of the US.

Hmmm
1) I believe the thread is what is referred to as a TROLL
2) Being Canadian means that we burned the White House to the ground--not once but twice!
3) Being the most over taxed country in the hemisphere
4) Really bad football players from the states who got cut from the high school get to play in our CFL
5) Having a casino in Windsor which takes how many millions out of Michigan?
6) Having a public health care system where everyone is over taxed for it and those who can afford it go to the States for the best health Care!!!!
7) Having our largest trading partner speaking the same language, and having very similar labor standards and policies. No child labor and for the most part safety first.
8) Having a neighbor who will stand up for you when your central government is weak--thanks
9) Who else can we beat in hockey---and enjoy so much--England?
10) Lets face it--George W vs Stephen Harper? We win you --well at least you have term limits!
11) The Alberta Oil Sands!
12) We invented the phone
13) Mad Cows
14) Best fishing
15) Best Hunting
16) Moose for pets
